A Quiet Place Part II
Warning: This article contains SPOILERS forA Quiet Place 2.
A Quiet Placeintroduces blind monsters that resembleStranger Things' Demogorgons.
They attack any sound source but do not feed, so their diet is still unknown.
A little later, the town’s baseball game is interrupted by a massive fireball falling to Earth.
As the Abbotts are heading home, sheer chaos ensues as the first attack begins.
This doesn’t quite align with whatA Quiet Placesays about the meteor in Mexico.
That would explain the breaking news report in Shanghai before the same thing occurred in the Abbotts' hometown.
In a 2018 interview,Krasinski confirmed the monsters arrived on meteoritesfrom their home planet, which exploded.
Regan even tries to shoot one on her own but doesn’t make a direct hit.
InA Quiet Place 2, bullets don’t work on an advancing alien.
The alien emerges unscathed and would have detected her if it wasn’t for the sprinkler system.
Lee brings his son Marcus (Noah Jupe) to a waterfall near the house.
There, they can speak freely because the waterfall provides white noise that distorts the aliens' hearing.
The alien has trouble detecting her in the flood because of the rushing water.
The sequel also reveals that the aliens cannot swim.
One attempts to follow Emmett, but it seems to sink as soon as it leaps in.
Their saving grace is that the aliens cannot swim.
This parallels the aliens' weakness in 2002’sSigns, where the extraterrestrials are physically burned by exposure to water.
For all their strengths camouflage, acrobatics, and administering poisonous gas H2O ultimately destroys them.
